Could we have E-175's in the same fleet as the 190's? If so, I see the DCI E-175's being transitioned to mainline over the next 5 years.

Yes please.

Correct! The TA would have allowed for more large RJs with the introduction of the 190s, but they are capped at the limit associated with the 717 since that did not pass.

So by voting "NO", we held the line on large RJs AND the company bought the 190s. Sounds like it worked out well.

The 88 is probably the best airplane in the fleet for a lot of reasons.

Best airplane Boeing ever built!

What would General Lee think about 175's to mainline...we need to find out..

Moakism became undeniably irrelevant on December 16, 2015.

Congrats guys! High-fives all around! And to think you would have had to fly them for much more money...

You know, good negotiators get back pay for drawn out negotiations.

I'll place my bet that the 190s are never flown at the current rates.

Focused plus!

I would also bet that those are temporary jets for the E195X. Make sure the E19-whatever pays no less than MD88 rates.

It's pretty insulting slamming the RJ/commuter pilots.

I'm a Delta pilot. I came from the regionals/commuters.

The regionals call DAL pilots "Double Breasted Douche Bags." The earlier posts calling pilots "regional pukes" is exactly why.

Regional pukes will fly circles around a military pilot on day one of line ops. BUT, take that regional guy, and throw him into a military mission, and they'll suck too.

It would do Delta pilots well to stop acting like they are better than one kind of pilot or the other. We are either good pilots or bad pilots... No matter what the background.

It's a lot easier to treat people nicely than to be a DB.
